Mold has the ability to take root in a property fairly quickly. And because of this quickness, and the potential serious health risk for people exposed at your commercial property, mold needs a quick response. A property owner may first come into contact with mold in the form of an odor. Our teams have tools to help identify mold problem areas to more quickly and effectively address your problem. Mold develops in areas with increased levels of moisture. Part of the mold remediation work is also identifying the source of the moisture and first addressing this.
A typical dictionary defines sewage as that "waste matter that passes through sewers." This is easy to understand, the used water in our properties, whether water from kitchens or bathrooms, moves from our properties to water management facilities. But sewage isn't simply "used water", that's perhaps the nice way of saying it, sewage is used water and waste. This watery mess is contaminated and should be considered potentially dangerous. This waste water may contain bacteria and viruses that could cause serious illness; it's not something to take lightly.
